Got into a wreck and need to find the forks and triple trees so I can ride again. I've searched ebay and the only ones I found where taller forks.

Penders, they are the same forks. They just have different springs in them. If you can salvage the springs from your wrecked units they can be swapped to make the taller forks SL or CG units.

I believe the standard and low forks are valved differently as well.
